One more thing to take into consideration, Danno. Much of the information concerning Jacob Blake's recent legal issues weren't not common knowledge at the point in time that NFL teams were reacting. Given a little more lead time they may have come to a different decision on wearing the name tags.

We are too quick to judge. We are willing to throw away something we love at the jerk of a knee.

Doesn’t matter. If the almighty NFL, the almighty Saints, the almighty DB#9 CHOOSES to propagate an ideology by using the name of someone they consider a “victim”, then they dam well better known who they are aligning themselves with.

bc Those who wore his name on their helmets just stated that sexual assault is OK, so long as the current universally accepted social justice platform is advertised on TV and via superstar athletes.

Those photos will exist in perpetuity, without context. It was a bad idea, regardless of the idiot who thumbs up’d the “team” doing it.

Fine. Your take is just that. Your take. Nobody but a small percentage of sensitive Saints fans give a darn about what the Saints voted to put on their helmets on an isolated practice day during the COVID dominated year of 2020.

It's pretty much a non issue moving forward except for those few.

Now, back to football!

From what I have heard from those in the know his elbow is healthier than it has been in years. He has played the last several years with a problem in that elbow but had never addressed it medically. It finally gave way and he had to have it fixed for good. From everything I am hearing is for the first time in years he is not experiencing any pain in the elbow when throwing. You are familiar with the Tommy John procedure, right? Those pitchers and others that come back from the surgery have said and shown that their arm is stronger than ever.

I'm full in on Big Ben this season.

Didn’t Delhomme have that surgery and it wasn’t the same? Not saying Ben will have the same issues as Jake cause Ben is a big sexual assaulting lumberjack... lol, don’t mind the rape jokes with him but he clearly looks like he’s been out of shape for the past 7 years.

No. Ben's surgery was something else. I was using the Tommy John as an analogy. His was less evasive, I believe.

While he looks out of shape even with the bad elbow he's been putting up huge passing numbers. I think he'll be back. More than one expert have been picking the Steelers to win it all.

They’ll make the playoffs but winning it all idk, AG. I still say Baltimore is a good bit better than them so they would have to do it as a wild card. Not saying it can’t be done but I hope not a friend of mine is a big time Steelers fans. And he’s already talking sh*t about how the saints are gonna lose to Brady and Tampa will win the division. So F Pittsburgh, lol.
